DAY 2

Complex data types

---

Lynch’s Law says “when the going gets tough, everyone leaves.” Anyone can complete the first day of a course, but it takes diligence to come back for day 2 – well done for sticking with it!

Today you have eleven one-minute videos to watch, and you’ll meet things like arrays, dictionaries, and enums. As before, if you want to dive deeper into each topic there is optional further reading, but you don’t need to read that unless you want to. Regardless, there’s a short test to help make sure you’ve understood what was taught.

1. Arrays
   • Optional: Why does Swift have arrays?
   • Test: Arrays
2. Sets
   • Optional: Why are sets different from arrays in Swift?
   • Test: Sets
3. Tuples
   • Optional: How are tuples different from arrays in Swift?
   • Test: Tuples
4. Arrays vs sets vs tuples
   • Optional: When should you use an array, a set, or a tuple in Swift?
   • Test: Arrays vs sets vs tuples
5. Dictionaries
   • Optional: Why does Swift have dictionaries as well as arrays?
   • Test: Dictionaries
6. Dictionary default values
